It's not often I add a new species to my life list these days. I try not to follow the reports because I don't want to be obsessed with chasing birds. I don't like burning the gas and I have to be careful with my free time right now. I had another birder tip me off that there was a Ross's Goose being reported and even offered to give me a ride to see it. That was an offer I couldn't refuse and I'm glad I took him up on it. A Ross's Goose is very similar looking to a Snow Goose. It is smaller than a Snow Goose, has a smaller bill and it has an all white head. A Snow Goose usually has a little bit of rust color on the head.
It was mixed in with a flock of a couple of hundred Canada Geese but being all white made it easy to pick out. It even put on a show by flying circles around us a few times!

That is awesome. Of course I would know it was different as it is white, but not know what kind it would have been.
